Great times and awesome video. I've watched your video 10+ times to see how I can improve my laptimes

Protocav · 10-09-2012, 01:24 AM

very nice. what modifications do you have done to the car, and what tires do you use at the track?

Thanks

Thanks. I've done the usual track mods: tires, suspension and brakes.

Tracked OE PS/2, then PSS, then AD08, all on ZCP wheels. Then 18" R-S3. Looking to try NT01 soon.

Ran stock brakes for first 4 track days, then tried Porterfield R4S pads with SS lines and Motul fluid. 13 more track days later, melted the second set of R4S front pads at Big Willow and drove home pretty much engine braking. Then, a few days later, a track buddy decided to part out his car and sold me his Brembo BBK.

Suspension-wise, tracked stock ZCP, then ran Ground Control sleeve kit (with -4.0f & -2.5r camber), and recently bought JRZ from another track buddy who was parting out his car and ran 4 track days with it.

No engine or exhaust mod.

Thanks for the info. I am on NT-05's right now, and I think they are garbage. I was hoping to get the NT-01's next, but the sizes that they have don't favor the 9.5/10.5 setup that i am running. Have you been happy with the RS3's? That is what I am leaning towards for the next set of tires, and I have heard good things about them. The car just wont stick with the NT-05's, but i guess they are just glorified street tires.

Yeah, I don't hear good things about NT05.

Yeah, R-S3 is very good. Better than AD08 on the dry surfaces, albeit noisier on the freeways. A lot of my track buddies run it and we all shaved 3 sec's over AD08 that we used to run on every track we went to. But, R-S3 does quickly heat-cycle out (around 3 to 4 track days?) and, after that, not worth a damn for tracking.

What size AD08 were you running on the ZCPs? Out of what you tried on the ZCP wheels were they the best for track duty?

AD08 > PSS > PS2

Any reason you chose those sizes over 265/30 and 295/30? Worried about rubbing or did you just want a taller sidewall?

I am pretty torn on what to get on my ZCPs next... or do I just take the plunge and get some Apex wheels? Ha ha... just what I need... three sets of wheels.

OC3 · 10-11-2012, 01:31 AM

^Played it safe and went with sizes my track buddies were running at the time.

lulz, early last year, I swore that I would just track with ZCP wheels. But, right now, I have 3 sets of wheels and may be purchasing a 4th set soon, lol.
